Three of the cosmetics industry’s biggest companies, Mary Kay, Avon, and Estee Lauder (and all the brands under them!) have been named in a class action lawsuit filed in California on behalf of American consumers. The lawsuit sites that these companies fraudulently claimed not to be doing animal testing when in fact they were, misleading the American public. This lawsuit comes after the news in February that PETA was removing these companies from their cruelty [...]

Hello there! It’s been a little while since I’ve talked about any mark. products! I was immediately attracted to these eye shadows though because I love purples. These are released alongside mark.’s new fragrance, Night Iris. These particular shadows are referred to as Violet Femme shades, which is another reason why I was interested; I love the Violent Femmes and I thought the name was a cute parody.  The mini collection of shadows consists of Pink [...]

mark. has been a pet favorite of mine since many years ago when I decided to become a rep. I’ve been a mark. rep since 2006! The line has changed a ton since I started, especially in the area of skin care. I like a lot of their skin care products, and I used to love their eye cream back in the day before they scrapped the entire skin care line in order to reformulate [...]

Yee haw! Okay cheesiness ends now. Promise. :) Rather than do a ton of short reviews about makeup removers, I thought I’d just do a big huge post with my thoughts on various removers I’ve tried, from cheapo to expensive! This post is for the makeup removers that are supposed to be just swipe and go, so I am omitting anything that needs to be rinsed off or followed with an additional cleanser. Budget Makeup [...]

Here’s a sneak peek of what mark. has coming! mark.’s latest body collection partners with Fair Trade to bring you Body Care That Cares, a collection of body products that include fair trade-sourced ingredients.  What is Fair Trade?

The movement advocates the payment of a higher price [...]

(click to see full size) Admittedly I’ve been kinda out of the mark. scene for a while, but I realized I really needed to get back with it because I really love my mark. stuff, and some of the new products coming out are really cool. It doesn’t hurt that I am a rep, so there’s the incentive to have some income there too. ;) Hey, I’m unemployed– I need all the help I can [...]

It has been a while since I have mentioned anything from mark. cosmetics, and for you mark. girls out there I apologize! I haven’t really been an active mark. rep in a while. BUT I couldn’t let these deals go by without mentioning them to you. So whether you’re a big mark. fan or new to the brand, these gift with purchase offers are a great deal! Through December 15th, place an order for $35 [...]

Okie dokie, sorry this is last minute but I have been slacking on keeping up with what’s going on at mark. lately. The Super Fruits, Super Foods, Super You! sweepstakes is your chance to enter to win a trip to NYC for you and a friend. It’s a quick trip, just 2 days/1 night, but I could use a quick jaunt to some exciting destination right now, couldn’t you? While you’re there, you’ll get to [...]
